Abstract (en)

Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: A terminal device obtains measurement results of N cells, where the N cells include M non-public network cells, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and M is an integer greater than or equal to 0. The terminal device determines, based on the measurement results of the N cells and measurement result offset values corresponding to H first cells in the N cells, a target cell on which the terminal device is to camp, where H is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and H ≤ N. According to the communication method and apparatus provided in the embodiments of this application, efficiency of determining, by the terminal device, a cell on which the terminal device is to camp can be improved.
